You're not gonna get away with that here.

I tell you what. You go to your next regularly scheduled service at your Kingdom Hall and you count for me the number of African-Americans there and report back to me with what percentage of your congregation they represent.

I'll frankly be shocked if it's more than 10%.
actually in my last congregation there were many from Ghana, three families, some of
the husbands were elders and they are awesome, you dont know anything, you really
have no idea and yet here you are, bitchin away.

That Jehovahs witnesses are the least materialistic of all denominations. Why? because
they heed the counsel of the Christ, not top be storing up treasures, where moth and
rust consume.
So you assume that because people have more money their treasures are in
the things they own not in where it is supposed to be?

If you have read the thread, which you evidently have not, you would see that I
explained to FMF, that materialism is a state of mind, please read the text before
subjecting us to your assumptions.

I really do want the point of this discussion, why was this brought up?
Was it work ethic, what was the reason?

clearly there is a disparity, have you any reasons that should be considered as to why
that is?

I read the parts I read, I'm not going to go through a full thread just to see
what you or anyone else wrote. My questions stand answer or don't.

work ethic??? what about those who inherit wealth and dont need to work or who have
businesses where others do the work for them or those who do voluntary work, Epic
fail. Wealth is hardly relative to ones work ethics as you have erroneously assumed.

My original post,

if you post something with spiritual content, i will consider it, your insinuations of
hypocrisy are typical of the tabloid and empty nature of your posts, when you post
something with spiritual content, i will consider it, otherwise, you appear to me to
continue in the same tedious vain and hold no interest for me. Please dont be
offended, personal attacks and threads on masturbation are typical of you, to me, they
hold no fascination, sorry.

That number of people is quite small, not everyone who is wealthy got there just
because someone else worked hard! You wanted to know why I thought there was
a huge gap I am saying work ethic.

BUMP for robbie.

If, as you claim, a person can be wealthy and yet not be the least bit materialistic, and then apply this to the 9% of Jehovah's Witnesses who earn over $100,000 a year, why can't it also be applied, for example, to the 13% of Evangelicals or the 16% of Mormons or the 19% of Catholics etc. etc. who also earn over $100,000 a year?
